[bars] Unofficial BARS Member Patch

I have a comment on the diamond patch symbol.  If if the arrow at the top is meant to be an antenna, like in the ARRL symbol and other organizations around the world, it looks upside down.  An antenna symbol typically points downward as a bisected triangle on both on schematics and emblems. Though if there is a specific reason for the 'up" arrow I will stand "down" from my remarks as I am not the creator.
